Denote by $\mathbb F_q$ the finite field of order $q$ and by $\mathbb F_{q^n}$ its extension of degree $n$. Some $a\in\mathbb F_{q^n}$ is called primitive if it generates the multiplicative group $\mathbb F_{q^n}^*$ and it is called…

In this paper we study elements $\beta \in \mathbb{F}_{q^n}$ having normal $\alpha$-depth $b$; that is, elements for which $\beta, \beta - \alpha, \ldots, \beta-(b-1)\alpha$ are simultaneously normal elements of $\mathbb{F}_{q^n}$ over…
